IDENTIFY Name of part or part number help

7 Upvotes

Hello all. Can anyone help identify this part please? I've looked at Google Images for twenty minutes already and used different angles but I got nothing from it. I do not know what bike it came off of as it was sitting at the bottom of the box of other parts I bought off Marketplace.

Thank you.

Edit: Oops. Forgot photo. Will post in comments.

DISCUSSION D&D exhaust

3 Upvotes

Hey y’all, I just wanted to express my frustration with this company. I placed an order for a 2-1 fat cat exhaust for my dyna back in January and originally it was only gonna take 6-12 weeks to get…. Now all year long it’s been on backorder and two months ago. They told me that it would take about 4 to 6 weeks for their steel shipment to come in so they could build my exhaust I gave them some extra time and called today and discovered they are still waiting on steel….It turns out they have plenty of steel on hand to build exhaust for the M8 bikes, but they don’t have inventory to build my exhaust because they said (twin Cam) exhaust builds are on low priority. what kind of company is this? I’ve been waiting since January and all they could do is come up with more and more excuses. I’m not waiting any longer for an exhaust. I need to find a better company to go to for a 2-1 I’ve waited six months with no result. I can say I don’t recommend buying a exhaust from this company unless you own a M8

DISCUSSION Thinking of buying a Harley one day

11 Upvotes

I allways rode japanese motorcycles and had very few issues ever. I'm thinking of buying a Harley one day and keep it like forever, because I allways loved them for their looks and sound and whatnot. I'm thinking electra glide late twin cam 103 model, like 2015ish. What can I expect reliability wise? I'm gonna mantain it properly ofcourse. I see all kinds of reliability opinions here. What is you real life experience? Can I do like 100k km without any mayor work?

HELP Street glide or street bob?

• Upvotes

In between a 2010 street glide and a 2019 street bob. I know very different bikes but this is what my budget allows me. Was dead set on the street glide then found a sweet street bob and really don’t know which way to go. As someone who has always ridden lighter bikes the weight of the street glide kind of intimidates me

HELP Mid Control primary cover for my 21 FXST

1 Upvotes

Hi!

I bought a 21 FXST that has been dropped by the previous owner. It had forward controls when I got it but I'd really prefer mid controls. When I checked what I'd need for the conversion I realized that the previous owner probably put on an aftermarket primary cover due to the crash damages, and it doesn't have the opening for the shifter shaft to pass through the primary onto the shift linkage.

I've been scouring several shops now but for the life of me can't seem to find the right cover, am I missing something or is this part just hard to find?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The front still had 150 PSI of compression though. That ring is small but mighty.

Heads went into the shop a few weeks ago and are back with a total valve job. Got some lightly used cylinders and new pistons and will be putting it all back together tomorrow.

Awful timing with it being summer. Sigh.

Edit: has 90k miles and previously melted rear piston by the last owner (my dad)

HELP I’m ready to transition to Harley

17 Upvotes

My first motorcycle was a Honda shadow 1100 and I rode that bike like it was going out of style. In the span of about three years I put 15,000 miles on it and I live in a state with winter. When I was ready to upgrade to my second bike, my primary concern and biggest complaint with the shadow was it had no power and so I over corrected and bought a CBR 1000. My wife decided to buy a sportster 1200 this year and now I kind of have V-twin cruiser fever, but I know that if I don’t buy a bike that has does not have enough power, I’m gonna be bored and end up back on a sport bike. I really don’t know a lot about Harley’s at all, I know the real big engine is the 131 but that only comes in bikes that are way out of my price range. I’ve been looking at fat Bob’s with the 114 and thinking that those could potentially have when I’m looking for, but I’m not sure. I just want a bike that hauls ass but isn’t gunna turn me into a skid mark . Any suggestions
